Integrating Real Time Traffic Data and Mobile Health Diagnosis for the Mobile User First Aid

Publication: ICTIS 2013: Improving Multimodal Transportation Systems-Information, Safety, and Integration

Abstract

The paper aims at illustrating how the biometric data (such as the heart rate or the skin perspiration) of a mobile user taken by commercially available systems may be stored through a Bluetooth interface on the user mobile to be processed using a simple expert system that takes into account the possible pathologies and the current activity of the users to elaborate a first health diagnosis, helping the remote medical centers to decide the equipment type in the ambulance and the doctor specialties. Also, the paper points out how integrating the traffic information taken by various technologies and from people's perceptions is possible to compute, in real time, the travel time of each road to find the minimum path to the accident position.
